Even if you only have one plant or a small mixed vegetable garden, you can save seeds! Learn how to have good harvests year after year, and become self-sufficient. The practice of seed saving and sharing promotes genetic diversity of crops and overall food security. Participants will also learn about the Ottawa Seed Library & how they can participate each year. This program is offered as part of the à la carte food literacy project in partnership with Just Food. Funded by the government of Ontario.

Join us for Ontario’s sustainable food systems conference!

Start-up Farm Program

Just Food established the Start-Up Farm Program to support new farmers in the Ottawa region. By offering access to land, shared infrastructure/equipment, and training, the program aims to enable more people in this region to start their own successful farm business.
